AIRPORT Check-In

At most airports, check-in is carried out via self-service kiosks, where you will receive your boarding pass. To complete this process, you will need a machine-readable ID card or your credit card, and your "file key," which can be found on your flight information.
If you require assistance with check-in, please contact the airline’s staff at the airport. Make sure to arrive at the airport well in advance of your flight.
In accordance with regulations, we would like to point out that detailed information about passenger rights under the Montreal Convention can be found at: www.iatatravelcentre.com/tickets
You can check in online starting 72 hours before departure for Eurowings or 23 hours before departure for Lufthansa and SWISS, directly on the airline’s website.

Transfer Airport – Ship

After collecting your luggage from the baggage carousel at Porto Airport, proceed to the exit of the customs area. Once in the arrivals hall, turn right – A‑ROSA representatives from the local agency will be waiting for you with an A‑ROSA sign. Once all guests have cleared customs, the staff will guide you to the transfer bus. Since A‑ROSA guests may arrive on different flights, waiting times at the baggage carousel or for the transfer may occur. In some cases, buses may transport guests arriving on multiple flights. Please make sure your A‑ROSA luggage tags are securely attached to your bags to ensure they are correctly assigned to your cabin. Of course, your luggage will be delivered directly from the transfer bus to your cabin. All details about the return transfer from the ship to the airport, as well as luggage labeling requirements, will be provided on board by the A‑ROSA team in good time before departure.

Car Parking at the Airport

If you're travelling to the airport by private car, you can easily book your parking space through Holiday Extras. The terms and conditions of the parking contract apply.

Book your parking space here.

Please note: Domestic rail connections within Germany can be added to the Rail & Cruise package for an additional fee. Booking an alternative flight arrangement through A-ROSA (e.g. in combination with a pre- or post-cruise program) is only possible on request and may incur additional charges. Transfers are not included in this case.
